It's all about making contact with pitches above the belt. There were times last year it looked like he had a hole in his bat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure he had less than 5 swings and misses. This is the type of start that makes people think he will end up being a closer (assuming he's healthy tonight) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFirebird Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 Davidson definitely looks like a ML hitter. With the power he has...if he can hit .250ish he can play in this league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were times last year it looked like he had a hole in his bat. As I posted in another thread -- there are real improvements in his discipline profile, which is even more impressive given how often umps have screwed him 3-2 this year. His oZone swing % is down over 10% and he's making more contact (fouling off more tough pitches, which reflects his improved balance and swing) when he does swing, both inside the zone and outside. He is absolutely crushing 2 seam fastballs this year as well. He's almost 5 linear weighted runs above replacement on them. I've done a 180 on him. He's still a DH at the end of the day but now he looks like he might actuall by a 2-3 WAR DH. Oh and that play he made on the popup over by the stands the other day in St Louis was very impressive. He wouldn't have gotten that ball last year. He has worked hard I give him credit, including putting in the time to cut his body fat.
